Maxima bumper on 96-99I30?

Can the maxima body kits fit on 96-99 I30s, just the full front and rear replacement bumpers, and side skirts, not a lip kit like Stillen or Paradox. Anyone have one on their I30 96-99? Pretty sure some people here have done this, any pics, info would help alot. Thanks

I think for the front you would have to change your fenders...

Other than the fenders,changing or cutting,are they the same width? I know the stillen kit needs to be cut up and you need two of them. Do the full bumper replacements do not have this problem, or are they wide enough?

Front BUMPER
It's going to be alot of work.. if you only want to change the fenders and bumpers... What type of lip kits are you looking for?
I have a set of 3piece Front Spoiler for the I30. And can possibly bring in another front spoiler kit.. (but it's going to be low... almost hitting the ground type of low)....

REAR BUMPER
Don't think it will fit.. notice both front and rear I30 bumpers wrap around the fender (front and rear) of the car.. BUT the Maxima bumpers is much shorter.. then the I30.. see the point where the Maxima bumper connects to the body.

Unless you wanna go with the Cefiro Diana Kit.... which is a full bumper replacement.. I am NOT aware of any full bumper replacemnet body kit for I30.

ok not to sound like a d!ck but everypost u have made could very easily be answered by searching. IE the grille post, and now this one. maxima body parts do not fit on i30's! the only thing that is really interchangeable is cefiros, mirrors, door handles and doors i believe, as well as those covers that go on your pillars and rear windows spoilers other than that NOTHING else fits

pretty much true...but a lot of interior parts can be swapped however body work and exterior stuuf is a lot of extra work for what purpose? It just seems like a waste of time and money IMO...

They are the same car almost, A32, right. I know what parts are universal, but the billet grill was an idea, along with the body kit, something different. Just asking what people thought, now I know. thanks

Here are some bodykit links i have found for the cefiro i30 infiniti a32 my be qx maxima

Just some i found i hoping to find out if anyone knows what size my nissan qx maxima united kingdom is is it the same as the us maxima or the japanese cefiro or the i30.
I was hoping to get a bodykit for it but cant find out the size i have contacted nissan a few time but with no help at all.
I would love r33 style bodykit for my nissan qx but not sure of its fit on my car.
The spec of the i30 seems roughly the same as my qx but with some difference but close to the us maxima.
So is the uk qx the same as the japanese cefiro the us i30 or us maxima who knows .
Also would a original r33 skyline bumper fit straight on to its shell.can anyone help with all these questions.

Nissan QX looks very similar to my 96 I30 with the exception of engine and possibly different trans, never saw a QX in person. My 1996 I30 has a 3.0L V6 with a VLSD transmission, I see yours is the 2.0L. Did they come turbo? or just aftermarket.....what type of transmission? From pictures they look almost identical, with the exception of badges and grill. I am guessing it shares more in common with the 2.0L cefiro, but I think they are all the same size and wheelbase, I'll have to look it up.

BTW Euro Maxima QX A32 and A33 has 2.0V6 or 3.0V6 engines and 5-speed manual or 4-automatic transmission and the body is same as Infiniti i30!
p.s.A33 is just like I30 touring

qx again

Hi and thanks for the replies unfortunate my qx isnt turbo ,only 2.0 24v v6
Would be great to get a 3L tho but hard to get 3L manuals here mainly auto's
the turbo cefiro on the link seems identical to my qx in style less the bodykit.
The cefiro from the link had a good idea he added a skyline engine cool.
The problem came for me when i wanted to get a r33 bodykit from the US, then i found out about the i30 and read the maxima kits didnt fit them.
So atm iam trying to look into how close the uk model is to each car.Is the qx same as the cefiro seems that way and is that the same as the maxima or is it the same as the i30 looks similar some specs different but is size different.
So any help would be grateful.
